Assassin's Creed on Kinect makes people look like Fools, also it's April

Definitely not available for Wii.

Funny stuff, make sure to watch thru to the end!

New iPad sales surpass three million over weekend

an addition to my previous post: i don't really use it for core gaming, as I use my Vita for that. But it does provide some occasional entertainment when I am away from home and without my console/my Vita is charging.

New iPad sales surpass three million over weekend

@eat it

actually, it does much more than that. I don't upgrade every year or anything like that and wouldn't call myself an avid Apple fan. But, the utility of the device is beyond what everyone thinks, in terms of just a browser. Rather than pack up my 17" laptop when I travel, I take my iPad 2 (not buying a 3, nor did i have a 1). I have Pages, Keynote, and their Excel clone. I have been able to stay enrolled in online classes because my school has textbooks on iPad, a mobile app to access and participate in class, as well as the ability to type out my research papers and projects in the word processors. The .pdf functionality lets me store references for these projects as well. I have a small logitech bluetooth keyboard that helps me do my homework, as the onscreen is not as useful. I also use it to Skype with my wife, who is back in the US (I am overseas)

What i am saying is that there are more functions than simply being a net browser. As a constantly traveling military member, I am so happy to have something I can carry so easily that allows me to stay in school, video chat with loved ones, AND browse the web. That's just my two cents, not trying to persuade the masses.

Rumor: Valve working on 'Steam Box' console standard with customizable controller, biometrics

Mar 3rd 2012 1:41PM (Joystiq)
I don't want to sound like a nay-sayer, but I am just not sure how great of an idea this is. I am curious as to what you guys at Joystiq think, insofar as your personal opinion on this? I think Gabe's view that consoles should be universal is good, in some respects. However, the competitiveness of the big 3 helps drive innovation. I can't say for sure, as this is just my own thought process, but I feel that the Wii was a catalyst for the Kinect and the Move. Xbox Live was the catalyst for greater online functionality (or the Dreamcast for those keeping score). I could go on, but I think the point is made.

Also, I realize the specs of this supposed machine are pretty good, but we all know that computers are constantly evolving. If this is to be Gabe's universal console, will it be able to keep up without getting Valve into the console manufacturing cycle that Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft are in? Or is this more of an attempt to try to get the big 3 to get onboard with a universal device? So many questions.

If Windows 8 and the Dashboard are so seamless, can i expect my desktop background to try and sell me something every time I turn on my PC?

'The Legend of Dead Kel' is Reckoning's second DLC, arrives on March 20

I started this game up and realized that it is going to be a huge time investment. Not a bad thing, but I had to sadly put it away until I have more time to devote to a great game like this.
